> Also, related to LanX's comment, How does method dispatch interact with AUTOLOAD?
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dump qw/pp dd/;
Class->new("method");
Class::new("function");
# sub UNIVERSAL::new {
# warn "UNIVERSAL", pp \@_;
# }
package Class;
use Data::Dump qw/pp dd/;
sub AUTOLOAD {
warn "AUTOLOAD", pp \@_;
}
AUTOLOAD["Class", "method"] at d:/Users/lanx/AppData/Roaming/exp/new_a
+utoload.pl line 23.
AUTOLOAD["function"] at d:/Users/lanx/AppData/Roaming/exp/new_autoload
+.pl line 23.
with UNIVERSAL::new() uncommented:
UNIVERSAL["Class", "method"] at d:/Users/lanx/AppData/Roaming/exp/new_
+autoload.pl line 14.
AUTOLOAD["function"] at d:/Users/lanx/AppData/Roaming/exp/new_autoload
+.pl line 23.
So a class which counts on catching ->new in AUTOLOAD would be sabotaged.
A normal function call wouldn't be effected by UNIVERSAL.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
